OverviewThe sequel to the game 1080 Snowboarding for the Nintendo 64.

lordrand11 rates this game: 5/5

1080 Avalanche was a game built for the Gamecube by Nintendo Software Technology (NST) the American branch the opposite of Nintendo's EAD company located in Japan. It was built as a true spiritual successor to that of 1080 Snowboarding on the Nintendo 64 and was mainly for showcasing the Nintendo Gamecube's Graphics and Processing power.

However the game had a marvelous and intuitive racing system built into the game along with a decent selection of songs when racing. Personally one of the funnest moments I encountered in this game was the final Avalanche level where you are racing down a mountain away from an avalanche trying to swallow you up. The visuals were impressive, the gameplay was just as impressive and the controls of this game were near-perfect on every aspect. If you are a fan of the extreme sports genre and generally like snowboarding I recommend checking this game out. You won't be disappointed.

I loved playing this game as a kid. It was one of the first games I ever owned on the Gamecube and I had a blast. Unfortunately, I lost that disc. I still have the console, however. Anyways, great music, great gameplay, very cool, very fun, very entertaining.

In short, fun game, will keep you entertained for hours. Many unlockables, trails, characters, etc.
